Upstream Podcast
Upstream Podcast - Here at Upstream, we look at economics a bit differently. Forget everything you associate with ECON 101: all the jargon about supply and demand, the mathematics, the indecipherable theories. Of course, there's a place for all that stuff. But this isn't it. Upstream is a show about economics that tells the stories of how we live and relate to each other - socially, culturally, politically, psychologically. We don't take our current capitalist system as a given. We don't assume that we are all self-interested, rational consumers. We're not interested in business as usual. What we are interested in is telling the stories of the people, places, and ideas that bring us closer to a new way of living in the world. We do that through our audio documentary series, our interviews, and workshops. [27 Jan 2017 - fb page likes = 548]
